Ep. 12 - Attention Is All You Need

Marie, Jim, and João discuss balancing personal skill-building with technological ease. Using examples from woodworking, urban-planning videos, and navigating cities, they question when relying on technology becomes freeing and when it risks dulling essential abilities. Marie highlights three mental "muscles"—attention, reading, and memory—that technology might weaken. While AI can swiftly summarise complex content, they argue this convenience may undermine our ability to engage deeply, recall independently, or remain truly present. The trio consider future generations growing up alongside smart assistants, contemplating what minimum skills are needed.
